Hi, I am wondering how someone would find out the IP address of a web server if it were behind a reverse proxy, but still on a public IP? Say for instance, the website was using CloudFlare, the A record points to CloudFlare but the website is hosted elsewhere on a public IP.
What motivates the question? As one example, if the ultimate web servers are IIS, they tend to leak private IP's via headers in a few different ways, so that's one possible method, but before saying too much more I guess it'd be useful to constrain the question more and know what your goal is. -- Todd Haverkos, LPT MsCompE http://haverkos.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Securing Apache Web Server with thawte Digital Certificate In this guide we examine the importance of Apache-SSL and who needs an SSL certificate.
